Struggles with shot in victory Holiday ended with 12 points (4-14 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 116-104 win over the Suns.

Impact Although Holiday nailed all four of his free-throw attempts, his stroke was ice-cold elsewhere. He failed to convert a single three-point attempt and shot 28.5 percent overall in the win. Tuesday marked the fifth straight game where Holiday failed to score 20 points or more, and although his secondary numbers remain steady, his shooting stroke has failed him over the past four games.

Stuffs stat sheet Monday Holiday totaled 11 points (4-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight assists, six rebounds, one block and one steal in 34 minutes during Monday's 133-124 victory over the Kings.

Impact Giannis Antetokounmpo (46 points) and Khris Middleton (31 points) carried the Bucks on the offensive end, resulting in Holiday taking more of a back seat in the scoring column. The veteran point guard still managed to bring value for fantasy managers with his outputs in the assists, rebounds and blocks columns, narrowly exceeding his season-long averages in each category.

Teases triple-double Saturday Holiday posted 18 points (7-22 FG, 4-11 3Pt), nine rebounds, eight assists, one block and one steal across 39 minutes during Saturday's 125-116 overtime loss to the Warriors.

Impact Holiday didn't shoot particularly well against the Warriors, but he still turned in a strong performance, falling just one rebound and two assists shy of a triple-double. The point guard actually shot better from beyond the arc (4-for-11) than from two-point range (3-for-11), and at least half of his shot attempts have come from deep in four straight games. Holiday's 6.4 three-point attempts per game this season are easily a career high, but he's still managing to shoot 47.3 percent from the field overall.

Decent stat line in win Holiday supplied 11 points (4-9 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals over 33 minutes during Thursday's 118-113 win over the Nets.

Impact Holiday returned from a one-game absence due to a neck injury, and while he wasn't as dominant as he's proven he can be in past games, he still posted a decent stat line while contributing on both ends of the court. The All-Star guard is averaging 20.6 points, 7.4 assists and 4.4 rebounds per game since the start of February.

Good to go Thursday Holiday (neck) will suit up for Thursday's game versus the Nets.

Impact Holiday sported a probable tag on the initial injury report, so seeing his upgrade to available against the Nets is not surprising. That said, Brooklyn will be without a number of its regulars in Thursday's starting lineup, so the fantasy risk changes from injury to blowout potential. Jevon Carter should retreat to a bench role with Holiday back in the mix.

MARCH 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Slated to return Thursday Holiday (neck) is listed as probable for Thursday's game versus the Nets.

Impact Holiday took the night off Tuesday with a neck soreness label, joining Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee/illness) on the sidelines. The pair of stars are both expected back in action Thursday, presumably sending Jevon Carter and Bobby Portis to their usual reserve roles.

MARCH 7, 2023 • JSONLINE.COM

Won't play Tuesday Holiday (neck) has been ruled out for Tuesday's matchup against the Magic.

Impact Holiday has been downgraded from questionable to out and will join Giannis Antetokounmpo (illness) on the sidelines. Jevon Carter figures to be the most likely candidate to start at point guard in Holiday's absence, but the Bucks will need plenty of contributions from different players to mitigate the loss of their two top playmakers.

MARCH 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable Tuesday Holiday (neck) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Magic.

Impact Holiday will probably want to test his neck pregame Tuesday evening, so he's likely headed for a game-time decision. If he's not able to give it a go, that would open up some more minutes for Pat Connaughton and Jevon Carter, with guys like Khris Middleton and Brook Lopez seeing an uptick in usage.
